ZeitsteuerungsvorrichtungTiming device
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Zeitsteuerungsvorrichtung, die aus Uhrwerk und wenigstens einem vom Uhrwerk gesteuerten Schalter besteht.The invention relates to a time control device consisting of a clockwork and at least one switch controlled by the clockwork.
Es ist bekannt, Zeitsteuerungsvorrichtungen, auch Zeitschaltuhren genannt, in Geräten des täglichen Gebrauchs zvi verwenden, beispielsweise Licht- und Heizungsanlagen, Klimaanlagen, Rolläden, Radios oder Video-Recorder.It is known to use time control devices, also called time switches, in everyday devices, such as lighting and heating systems, air conditioning systems, roller shutters, radios or video recorders.
Es ist weiterhin bekannt, daß derartige Zeitsteuerungsvorrichtungen bzw. Zeitschaltuhren, auch wenn sie quarzgesteuert sind, relativ ungenau sind. Sie verlieren im Laufe eines Jahres bis zu mehreren Minuten. Stromausfälle, Zeitumstellungen machen darüberhinaus derartige Uhren ungenau.It is also known that such time control devices or time switches, even if they are quartz-controlled, are relatively inaccurate. They lose up to several minutes over the course of a year. Power outages and time changes also make such clocks inaccurate.
Es stellt sich demnach die Aufgabe, diese Nachteile zu beheben und eine Zeitsteuervorrichtung anzugeben, die keine derartigen Zeitungenauigkeiten aufweist, solange sie elektrisch angetrieben ist.The task is therefore to eliminate these disadvantages and to provide a timing device which does not exhibit such timing inaccuracies as long as it is electrically driven.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Zeitsteuerungsvorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art gelöst, die dadurch gekennzeichnet ist, daß das Uhrwerk eine durch von einem Sender mit Zeitnormal ausgehende Signale funkgesteuerte Uhr "Funkuhr" ist.This object is achieved by a time control device of the type mentioned at the outset, which is characterized in that the clockwork is a clock radio-controlled by signals emitted by a transmitter with a time standard.
Die Verwendung von funksignalgesteuerten Uhren in speziellen Anwendungsgebieten, wie Armbanduhren, Weckern oder öffentlichen Uhren ist bereits Stand der Technik.The use of radio-controlled clocks in special application areas, such as wristwatches, alarm clocks or public clocks, is already state of the art.
Es ist aber bisher nicht bekannt, derartige Uhren auch zum Steuern von Zeitsteuerungsvorrichtungen zu verwenden.However, it is not yet known whether such clocks can also be used to control timing devices.
Vorzugsweise verarbeitet das Uhrwerk von einem Radiosender ausgehende Signale. In Europa können derartige Signale von einem Sender mit der Code-Bezeichnung DCF 77 empfangen werden, der in der Nähe von Frankfurt am Main (Mainflingen) stationiert ist. Dieser Sender hat eine sehr hohe Präzision und Zeitgenauigkeit. Seine Abweichung beträgt 1 Sekunde in 1 Million Jahren. Es erfolgt eine Zeitumstellung von Sommer- auf Winterzeit und umgekehrt, wobei darüberhinaus auch Kochentag, Datum und Monat angegeben werden. Jeweils nachts zwischen 2.00 Uhr und 6.00 Uhr erfolgt eine automatische Zeitsynchronisation.Preferably, the clockwork processes signals from a radio station. In Europe, such signals can be received from a station with the code name DCF 77, which is located near Frankfurt am Main (Mainflingen). This station has a very high level of precision and time accuracy. Its deviation is 1 second in 1 million years. The clock changes from summer time to winter time and vice versa, and the day, date and month are also indicated. Automatic time synchronization takes place every night between 2:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m.
Es werden demnach die bei Schaltuhren des täglichen Gebrauchs auftretenden Störungen, beispielsweise durch Stromausfall, Zeitumstellungen und allgemeine Gangungenauigkeiten immer wieder ausgeglichen, solange die Zeitsteuerungsvorrichtung an einen Stromkreis angeschlossen ist. Eine derartige Zeitsteuerungsvorrichtung benötigt auch keine sogenannte Pufferbatterie.This means that the faults that occur in everyday time switches, for example due to power failures, time changes and general timing inaccuracies, are always compensated for as long as the time control device is connected to an electrical circuit. Such a time control device also does not require a so-called buffer battery.
Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in der Zeichnung dargestellt.An embodiment of the invention is shown in the drawing.
Baustein 1 ist ein Empfänger, der über eine Antenne Signale vom Sender 4 empfängt. Hierbei handelt es sich um den bereits erwähnten Sender DCF 77. Der Empfänger wandelt die Impulse in eine Signalkette um und beaufschlagt einen Schalter 2, der wiederum über eine LeitungComponent 1 is a receiver that receives signals from transmitter 4 via an antenna. This is the previously mentioned DCF 77 transmitter. The receiver converts the pulses into a signal chain and applies them to a switch 2, which in turn receives signals from the transmitter via a line.
6 ein Gerät mit Zeitsignalen versorgt, das mit einer Uhrensteuerung ausgestaltet ist, beispielsweise einen Video-Recorder. Anstelle des Video-Recorders kann es sich auch um ein Elektrogerät des täglichen Bedarfs, um Licht- und Heizungsanlagen, Rollädensteuerungen, Radio- und Cassetten-Recorder oder dergleichen handeln.6 a device is supplied with time signals that is equipped with a clock control, for example a video recorder. Instead of the video recorder, it can also be an electrical device for everyday use, a lighting and heating system, roller shutter controls, radio and cassette recorders or the like.
Die Steuerung des Gerätes profitiert von der fast absoluten Ganggenauigkeit des von Radiosignalen gesteuerten "Uhrwerks", das sich im Empfänger verkörpert, sowie der automatischen Nachstellung der Zeit auf die korrekte Uhrzeit, wenn Störungen, wie Stromausfall, Winter-/Sommerzeitumstellungen etc. aufgetreten sind.The control of the device benefits from the almost absolute accuracy of the radio-controlled "clockwork" embodied in the receiver, as well as the automatic adjustment of the time to the correct time if disruptions such as power failures, winter/summer time changes, etc. have occurred.
